In true "blink and you missed it" style, Andy Jenkins Video Boss coaching came and went.
It opened at 9:00 pm UK time last night when I was much too focused on the AC Milan vs Manchester United game to thinking about videos and it was sold out when I checked first thing this morning.
So back to reality and how you can use video marketing to improve website conversions assuming you weren't one of the people who couldn't resist Video Boss.
Let me tell you about:
- How you can get high quality professional videos made for you at a crazy low price. This is a great bargain if you act quickly.
- A free video training for the screencast type videos - which means you don't have to appear - with the low priced Gold member upsell for an excellent course on how to put together videos.
iFlashVideo Monthly
This is an idea I really like for those of us who are technically challenged... or just too lazy or time pressured to put a video together ourselves.
It is a service called iFlash Video Monthly and I think it is a really neat idea available at a great price.
iFlash Video Monthly is a video marketing DONE FOR YOU service by people who already make high quality promotional videos with professional voice over.
You can use it for your own websites to promote your business or on blogs like this to put a bit of ooomph behind your affiliate offer and perhaps emphasise your bonus.
Unfortunately this is a launch and it has been crowded out by Mr Video Boss.
You can see the details and this is available for the next few days (mid February) and for a very limited number. Hey they are doing the work so this isn't the fake scarcity play of a digital offer but a genuine constraint.

ScreenCast Profits
If you are more of a do it yourself person - because you love the challenge and the sense of achievement or you don't have the spare cash to pay someone else then take a good look at Lon Naylor's training program ScreenCast Profits.

I bought this about six weeks ago.
I can't remember how I found it but I discovered it but I was investigating how you can put together a better Camtasia video. You know how daunting it is and one of my working styles is to "find out more about what I've got to do."
So I came across the video training from Lon Naylor and found I could join ScreenCast Profits for free - and then I was confronted with an upsell. Yes I know it is an Internet marketing trick but Lon is giving away some good stuff in the free area and the ScreenCast Profits Gold Members course is excellent.
I was stupid.
I took up my free Camtasia offer before I found out about ScreenCast Profits - had a few plays and thought "this is tough, I need help". Hence the search on Google.
My Camtasia trial ran out while I was working through Lon's videos and waiting for my fancy microphone to come. Lon stresses how vital it is to have good sound. Some people naturally have impressive sounding voices but the rest of us have to make the best of what we've got.
Duh! Don't do this.
But it means that when I want to put what I've learnt into practice - and yes I am scared of the technology - I have to buy Camtasia and it's not cheap so I really need to steel myself for action. Still if you buy through Lon after you become a ScreenCast Profits member he is offering more Camtasia specific training videos and he is an excellent teacher.

So there you have it - two solutions iFlash Video Monthly if you want a done for you service and ScreenCast Profits if you want to do it yourself.
You don't feel so bad about missing on on Video Boss now do you?
Last but not least...
You can get the Video Marketing Cashmap from Mark Joyner and Simpleology (yes another affiliate link). The top level video marketing strategy cashmap is free and will help you see the big picture. The more detailed video marketing action cashmap has a price attached to it.
